I mean.... the more different things VP have to offer, the more interesting it becomes, and the easier it is to find on the internet.

Res, We already have a blog for VP made by the Social Media team, However I DO need help with coding especially if you know HTML + CSS + Photoshop/gimp, etc so we could work together and create a theme and such and we are working as a team to get the people who run the blog to get more precise language with targeting skills I have posted which is basically just a few English basics that captivate an audience, I.E

(Yes, the Tumblr part is still there but I am paying for it soon enough to get it removed and Virtualpopstar.tumblr.com was taken by the dutch VP.)
Message me sometime and we can work together to build a proper theme and I will contact the others who run the blog to get their opinions because I really like your knowledge of coding and I do need help.

I think you are missing my point a bit. The fantastic thing about blogs, is that they are so easy to make (Not to write, and such), and a VP blog would be so original, in a kind of way. It would include users, be about users, be about anything else, the world have to offer, and have some funny and serious posts, like a real blog, but just where it always come back to the big theme, VP. So people, who don't know the site could get to know it, without even knowing that they are getting to know it. And when they search for something, that the blog has written about, it would pop up in google (maybe high, maybe low. Depends on the people who knows how to write correctly), and in that way they come in to a page, where they can read about that stuff. If it has good text on it, people is most likley to search around on it, and if there is content that appeal to the users, they will automaticly think about visiting VP, cause if the VP blog has it, the site must have something like that too. -And it does, the community! Other than that, the blog has the power to get SEO in a somewhat easy way, and SEO is a Search Engine O-something, and can do, so if done correctly, that the posts, and the blog, will be easy to find on google, and other serachers on the internet.
That is why it is so important, that it is only a few to do it, and that it have a website of its own, or a URL at least.
What you are talking about would, for me, seem a bit unproffesionel, and if I where about to go in to a "kids" (you know, popstar and dress up) website, I wouldn't care about the text, I would leave. So another reason it should have it's own site, and it's own layout (with VP style ofc)
Also, it seems a bit more awesome, for VP, to have their own blog. I haven't seen it anywhere else, where it is an OFFICIAL blog for a community site. But I get what you mean, I just don't think it is that great of idea, to do it that way.
Oh, and about wordpress. It's actually not that hard, if you just use some time, figuring it all out, or else the internet always holds the answer, when something doesn't do as you want.^^ I use it on my website.

Yes this are 2 different things, the blog I am talking about witch Res would not be about VP but about general interest of our target audience and would be made with word-press a way more complicated piece of software. It is not a social media thing and it would be a totally different way of attracting the public so it will not be in each other’s way at all.
So Zee keep up the good work with the social media team, I really need you there then Res can worry about a more general intrest organic google magnet blog
